Rainy Day 1/56/07

Today Dad had to go and get something done with one of the cars so he left early. He was home just as I woke at 9. I got up and he got my breakfast. Then took off. He did some errands then took a ride. It was too rainy to take me, besides I was tired from yesterday.

I had yogurt for lunch and watched my soaps.

Dad called around 3 on our cell to say he found him self in Massachusetts!!!! and would be home around 4ish. He was home by 4:45. We had leftover of Mom's Mac Cassarole. He put a can of V-8 juice. He was wary but I said that V-8 juice is partly tomato. Well was I ever clever, It was Great!!!!! I had heard on a Cooking show you could do that with other recipes that called for tomato and if you didn't have it use V-8.

After dinner Dad had to change my bag. This last one didnt stay on as long as the one before it. That one stayed on just about as long as they used to. Dad and I swear the company that makes them changed the design of the ostomy plates, they are thinner. Well don't tell them they did, we tried til our voices were horse and our fingers numb my emailing them. Well they said to use adhesive remover maybe they would stick on longer, we use warm soap and water. If you ask me you can't tell the difference in the length of time. It comes off regardless. At least I am more fortunate than some. I had a friend who's mother used to change her bag every other day! Talk about red skin.

Well anyway enough there. If I talk more you about it you would never come back to read.

Finally a quiet day in the news as far as I know. I did look into C-Span 1 and 2 and didn't find much going on.

I found only one story of the Ford's return to California. Seems when they got off the plane, both Betty ann Susan got "bouquets - pink attache roses and a spring mix respectively." This quoting thedesertsun.com website. Which seems to have had full coverage of their arrival back to California.

Now that lady should get a full weeks rest to equal what she went through this past week!

I am off to bed. Good Night all and have a good weekend. We all deserve it.
